Disappearance is a new performance that blows apart and retells fictional stories and historical events spanning 100 years into a mash of mythology and mayhem. A perfectly ordinary man with a perfectly ordinary life decides to disappear. A James Bond-like international conspiracy unfolds to kidnap our Prime Minister. A re-imagined Picnic at Hanging Rock is a ghost story to keep you awake at night.

Disappearance moves from a jump-cut present day story into an eerie Bermuda triangle void that conjures real and imagined characters and occurrences. Harold Holt sings a sea shanty. Three children play quietly with their toy trucks. Miranda’s corset hangs eerily in the air. A talking Tasmanian tiger growls at a little girl with some powerful earmuffs. Disappearance is an exhilarating journey into the fears, fascinations and obsessions with the mythology of disappearance in Australian culture.
